      Description

      This picture is awarded with the "Astrophoto of the Week" at Astronomie.de (see link below).

      You can find detailed knowledge about these faint nebulas there.

      Ou4 is dicovered in august 2011 by an amateur named Nicolas Outters.

      Its only visible in [OIII]. The nature of this very faint nebula is still not known. Maybe it's a planetary nebula. The distance and the central star are also not known.
